Abstract

DIAZ, Lía Camila. Nature and femininity in activism for respected childbirth:. Runa [online]. 2023, vol.44, n.1, pp.57-71.  Epub Jan 18, 2023. ISSN 1851-9628.  http://dx.doi.org/10.34096/runa.v44i1.10268.

Between the years 2016 and 2018 I realized a field work with groupings from the city San Carlos de Bariloche who claim the right to respected childbirth and who denounce the so-called obstetric violence. In the course of the research, I began to recover in my analysis, in addition to the speeches and practices, the images and visual references that circulate in and from activist spaces: flyers, posters, images from fanzines and books, etc. The goal of this article is to take back this images and their content, and to put them in dialogue with the activist discourses, and subsequently, reflect on the constructions of femininity and nature in the particular case of these local organizations.

Keywords : Images; Respected childbirth; Femininity; Corporality; Nature.
